AbstractThe effect of electric arc plasma jet treatment (APJT) on MOS structure reliability has been investigated. Si/SiO2/Si*/Al structures have been studied using the technique of constant current charge to breakdown before and after APJT. The study showed that APJT can improve MOS structure reliability: constant current charge to breakdown Qbd increased to more than 5 C·cm-2 and breakdown field Ebd increased to more than 20 MV/cm. This result was attributed to a structural modification of SiO2 and its interfaces as a result of APJT. Evidence for these structural changes is the appearance of additional SiO2 IR absorption peak which was observed by us.

ABSTRACTThe effect of arc plasma jet treatment (APJT) of silicon surface used for pre-gate oxidation cleaning on the electrophysical parameters of MOS structures (Si/SiO2/Si*/Al) has been studied- We show that APJT etching cleaning considerably improves the constant current charge to breakdown of MOS structures in comparison with conventional wet chemical cleaning. We have analyzed the effect of plasma cleaning conditions on the quality of gate oxide and SiO2/Si interface.

Excitation Processes

Physical parameters of electric arc plasma as well as their time dependences are calculated when analyzing phosphate precipitates of the fission products of irradiated nuclear fuel. Phosphate concentrates of the fission products are known for their complex chemical composition and high thermal and chemical stability. Hence, direct atomic emission spectral analysis of phosphate powders without transferring them into solutions is advisable. Different conditions of sample preparation and synthesis of the reference materials determine the different chemical forms of the elements to be determined. This, in turn, affects the kinetics of their evaporation in the electrode crate and excitation processes in the plasma. The known mechanisms of those processes cannot always be transferred to specific conditions of the given method of analysis thus entailing the necessity of studying the effect of the samples chemical composition on the results of determination, proper choice of spectroscopic carriers, detailed study of spectra excitation processes in spectral analysis, and analysis of the physical parameters of the electric arc plasma. We used the lines Zn I 307.206 nm and Zn I 307.589 nm to measure the effective temperature of the central hot sections of the arc in a range of4500 - 6500 K. NaCl, BaCl2 and NaCl + T1C1 were studied to reduce the effect of the sample elemental composition on excitation conditions of the spectra and their stabilization as a spectroscopic carrier. In control experiments we used carrier-free samples. The coincidence of the values of the plasma physical parameters within the measurement error not exceeding 20%, as well as the identity of the nature of the kinetic curves for samples of phosphate precipitates and synthetic reference materials prove their correctness. The result of the study substantiate correctness of the direct atomic-emission spectral procedure in analysis of phosphate concentrates of fission when using synthetic reference materials.

Abstract An electrochemical model based capacity fade estimation method for a Li-Ion battery is investigated in this paper. An empirical capacity fade model for estimating the state of health of a LiFePO4 electric vehicle battery was integrated with electrochemical battery model in Matlab/Simulink platform. This combined model was then validated against experimental data reported in the literature for constant current charge / discharge cycling. An HPPC current profile was then applied to the validated electrochemical-empirical battery prognosis model which reflected a real-time operating condition for charge and discharge current fluctuations in an electric vehicle battery. The combined model was simulated under the two different HPPC current inputs for three different cycle times. Additionally temperature was taken in account in estimating the cycle aging under the applied current profile to assess the present capacity remaining in the battery. The simulation results provided the state of health (SOH) of the battery for these cycling times which were comparable to the published experimental SOH values for constant current charge/discharge profiles. Thus this model can potentially be used to predict the capacity fade status of an electric vehicle battery.

Abstract Ceramic nanostructured coatings with intermediate thicknesses between 10 and 100 µm exhibit improved thermal and mechanical properties for thermal barrier coatings or wear resistant coatings. Such coatings comply with the technical requirements of aeronautical and automotive applications. This implies to develop deposition processes with high throughput and deposition rates promoting the formation of nanostructured coatings. The use of a liquid phase as a carrier medium of nanoparticles or of solution precursors has been shown to be of major interest when being injected within a thermal plasma jet. The as-sprayed materials can form ceramic nanostructured coatings provided the liquid injection encompassing the physicochemical properties of liquid and its injection method copes with the plasma properties. Especially the repeatability of the interaction phenomena between the liquid phase and the arc jet has a key role in the efficiency deposition so that some research efforts are devoted to stabilize the arc while a liquid jet is continuously injected within the plasma. Alternatively a pulsed arc plasma jet can be generated and associated with a time-phased injection of droplets. This paper presents the different issues related to the arc plasma properties produced by direct plasma torches including the arc instabilities and their influence on plasma/liquid interaction mechanisms leading to the formation of nanomaterials. A focus is made on pulsed plasma spraying associated with a synchronized injection of microsized droplets by means of an inkjet printing method.

Partial oxygen in LiNi0.7Co0.3O2 was replaced by chlorine to form LiNi0.7Co0.3O1.9Cl0.1. Phase structure of LiNi0.7Co0.3O1.9Cl0.1 was identified as a pure hexagonal lattice of α-NaFeO2 type by X-ray diffraction. Discharge capacity of LiNi0.7Co0.3O1.9Cl0.1 was 202 mAh/g in initial cycle at 15 mA/g current density in 2.5- 4.3 V potential window. The constant current charge/discharge experiments and cyclic voltammograms showed that chlorine addition was effective to improve reversible capacity and cycle stability of LiNi0.7Co0.3O2.
